April Beauty Favourites!

Here is a little selection of some products I have been loving quite a bit last month :) 

 My first favourite from April would have to be the Sanctuary Spa Illuminating Moisture Lotion with SPF 15. Its said to have 24 hours of hydrating protection for lasting radiance. I would say my skin is combination, the centre of my face can be oily one day and ridiculously dry the next, making my foundation look lovely of course! *prays for perfect skin* Also, trying new products on my face can be a bit of a gamble as some products can break me out very easily. This however manages to find the perfect balance for me, leaving my skin nicely moisturised and the dry patches unseen, but also not going to the extreme and leading to excessive oiliness. It feels great on my skin too! :) 

Another favourite of mine from April is a Number 7 lipstick in the shade Classic Rose. I normally tend to go quite safe with my lip colour, either sticking to natural shades, or if I'm feeling brave going for a deep red but still toning it down with a natural shade on top. I received this free with a Number 7 voucher and at first the bright pink left me a little shocked. Although, once applied  the pink turned to a more subtle  peachy tone, but still with a bit of 'pop'. Although out of my comfort zone, I didn't feel it looked too bad! Also a nice bright colour for spring/summer :)

The weather in England has finally chosen to teleport into summer! *wayhey* Unfortunately  it was rather sudden, leaving me having to expose some pale skin. I am not normally one to go 'all fake tan' and in fact  I actually quite like pale skin. Although I felt as it was getting warmer, I wanted a natural brown glow without the full orange affect. The Garnier Summer Body Moisturising Lotion does just that! Previously I had used another brand similar to this, which left me with yellow skin and a hideous after smell! So I was a bit wary to get into the tanning wagon again, but this product is exceptionally good! It apply's well, I have yet to spot a patch.. It smells lovely too! Its left me with a lovely brown glow which I can add to in order to build up the colour if desired. I am extremely happy with this product, especially after the last one haha! :)

Thank-you for reading :)
